200+ charisma is not enough on this server. Basically wait till level 39 when you get Cajoiling Whispers and you will start to see a world of difference in charm durations.
I agree with the above statement that a smart enchanter can solo quite well with their animation. People get way to hung up on DPS and ignore the virtue of stability sometimes.

I fully agree with this. Once I learned of the limitations with charm at lower levels, I moved to rely upon my animation. This was a great way to rip through stuff. I used this in Befallen and in SolA (I primarily grouped in Upper Guk in between). The usual approach for me..
1) Buff up self and animation
2) Lull extras in the area
3) Pull with tash (or sometimes slow if a hard hitter)
4) root as mob arrives (and starts beating me)
5) slow mob
6) DOT mob
7) med while animation is fighting
8) cast a DD spell if needed or step in to take some hits
9) Use whirl when needed. (Especially with casters where I color stun and then whirl when I see a casting message)
10) Meditate / heal up and repeat..
This can be slower than how charming was on the old live servers but it's really not bad at all. We at least have options where others do not. Eventually I am sure the devs will get around to fixing charm for lower levels but I understand why it's not the priority right now.
